You have 14 yoe after Bachelor? All 14 in the US top tier??? I wonder how on Earth did they give you L5 and not higher.

After bachelor First 2 out of country.

What's the level at Facebook?

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 10, 2020

L5

Twitch dumbskull Jan 10, 2020

Current TC? Hard to advise if you should stay. Between Pin and FB I would say FB assuming team and location aren’t isssues

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 10, 2020

Why ?

Twitch dumbskull Jan 10, 2020

Why fb over pinterest? I just dob’t see a future for pinterest in the long run. Also career wise I feel FB will teach you a lot more and be better for your career. It depends on the team of course. What team for each?

Level 5 is shocking. Isn't Pinterest is not tough like Facebook and can get higher level ?

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 10, 2020

Difficult interviews does not justify the company will be good choice. No L5 maps to L5.

Pinterest stock price will go up this year. Go for them.

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 10, 2020

How do you know ?

I'm psychic. 😝 Their stock recently went flat line and hit rock bottom. Now it's time for them to bounce back up.

Is this even a question? It’s Blind, people will choose the higher TC option even if it’s a janitor (higher TC) vs SWE (hypothetically lower TC) contest!

Netflix randomabs Jan 10, 2020

Although the comparison by tc is not apples to apples since Pinterest is pre IPO

Google 6Feet6Inch Jan 10, 2020

Are you from 2001? Pinterest is listed as PINS, please check :)

Tc at Uber ??

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 11, 2020

Lower than both of these. Stock price fall hit me hard.

Bonus at Pinterest 🤔

LinkedIn ghdr Jan 10, 2020

Seems like op added 20% stock refresher as bonus.

Pinterest engio Jan 11, 2020

Lol 20% stock refresher?!?!!

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 10, 2020

I was told there will be 20% bonus on base verbally. Not true ?

Pinterest Llft32 Jan 11, 2020

There is no bonus program at Pinterest other than spot bonuses which tend to be much smaller

Uber zoe hmm d8 OP Jan 11, 2020

How much lower ? If you were in my shoes, what would you have chosen and why ?
